Suddenly she saw an old woman by the side of the road, holding her hand out as if she wanted a lift. “I cant leave her out in this weather,” the woman said to herself, so she stopped the car and opened the door. “Do you want a lift?” she asked. The old woman nodded and climbed into the car. After a while, she said to the old woman, “Have you been waiting for a long time?” The old woman shook her head. “Strange,” thought the young woman. She tried again. “Bad weather for the time of year,” she said. The old woman nodded. No matter what she said, the hitchhiker (搭便车的人) gave no answer except for a nod of the head or a shrug. Then the young woman noticed the hitchhikers hands which were large and hairy. Suddenly she realized that the hitchhiker was actually a man! She stopped the car. “I cant see out of the rear screen,” she said. “Would you mind clearing it for me?”The hitchhiker nodded and opened the door.

It is partly due to(由于) the fact that people cant seem to agree on the purpose of homework.Some teachers think that homework is necessary to reinforce (巩固)what is learned in school. And so they ask their students to memorize what was discussed in class through homework. Some teachers think the point of homework is to cover material that the class didnt have time to get to, so their homework is to let students learn additional things. Other teachers like homework simply because they want students to form work habits and still others believe homework is necessary because its the best way for parents to learn what their children do in school. However, many parents seem to have different ideas. Elisa Cohen, who has twins at Lafayette Elementary School, doesnt like the fact that third-grade students in DC elementary schools are asked to write about 25 book summaries a year. She said,“They do the same thing over and over without really getting into alternate (交替的) ways of thinking about books, reading and writing.” Some education reformers (改革者), such as Howard Gardner, a Harvard University professor well-known for his theory on multiple intelligence, think that Cohen is on the right track. But its often hard to persuade overworked teachers to give much thought to homework tasks.28. How many opinions do the teachers have on “homework”?A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6.29. According to the experts opinions, _.A. what Cohens thinking about is correct B. teachers shouldnt work too hard or too longC. teachers should give necessary work to the studentsD. teachers should let the students repeat what they didnt have time to get in class30. Whats the problem with Elisa Cohens twins in writing about their book report?A. They find homework really hard. B. They simply copy one repeatedly.C. They get different ways of thinking about their work.D. They arent given much thinking about what they read.31. Some education reformers think we should improve our school education by_.A. increasing homework B. changing schoolsC. changing teachers D. reducing homeworkD Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that timeabout eight hours after you wake upyour body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later. In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short napeven ten minutes of sleep can be helpful32. Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?A. Because you eat too much for lunchB. Because its hot in summerC. Because your body temperature goes down at that timeD. Because you didnt have a good sleep last night33. What can we learn about “naps” according to the last paragraph?A. All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the dayB. Doctors need to take naps while employers dontC. If you take naps every day, youll never suffer from heart diseaseD. Taking naps regularly is beneficial to peoples health34. What can we infer from the passage?A. Youll feel sleepy at regular intervals（间隔）.B. Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.C. You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.D. If you get up at 6:30 am, youd better take a nap at about 1:30 pm.35. What would be the best title for the text?A. Just for a Rest B. All need a NapC. A Special Sleep Pattern D. Taking Naps in Warmer Climate第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to bee a better student in several ways 36 Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test.
